This is tempting. My son has a regular Kindle and I have a Nook Color that I generally do not like. I don't need an iPad or iPad Mini.
Can the Fire only read the Amazon format ebooks or can you load .epub and .pdf formats also? What about video formats? I have a lot of video content on our home server - can I stream to the Fire?
I guess know what I'll be researching during lunch.
edit: It looks like Plex is available for the Fire, so that answers part of my question.

Just an FYI, this model "...Includes Special Offers & Sponsored Screensavers.". I'll pay more now to be free of ads over the lifetime of the product. Too many ads out there as it is.

Can't you pay later to opt out?

I think so.

This link http://www.amazon.com/forum/kindle?_encoding=UTF8&cdForum=Fx1D7SY3BVSESG&cdThread=Tx2PFBADISB9E86 says I can opt out later for $15. Still irritates me that I have to pay to get rid of ads on a device I own. It's like another tax to pay.

The ads are totally harmless. None while you are reading. They show up while the kindle is asleep. I don't even recall EVER being bothered with them and we have four different kindle models.
